"Finally, an app that treats world-building as a visual process! As a fantasy writer, the character database and relationship charts have saved me from countless plot holes. I love that I can design my OCs' avatars right in the app—it makes my stories feel so much more alive. It’s perfect for my iPad-first workflow!"
"Nola is a dream for writers who love structure. The dedicated templates for Kishōtenketsu and Jo-Ha-Kyu helped me break out of my usual three-act rut. Being able to sync my drafts across all my devices means I never lose an idea when I'm away from my desk. It’s easily the most intuitive planning tool I've used in years."
